Bernardo Anor gave the Crew a 1-0 lead in the 78th minute, but a pair of late Robbie Keane
penalty kicks enabled the Los Angeles Galaxy to claim a stunning, 2-1 comeback victory.

The Crew has now lost three straight games.

After absorbing constant Galaxy pressure for most of the game, the Crew (5-8-5) took the lead
when Anor headed a long free kick from Federico Higuain over Galaxy goalkeeper Carlo Cudicini.
Eight minutes later, however, Crew goalkeeper Andy Gruenebaum was called for a foul inside the
penalty area when he undercut Galaxy forward Jose Villarreal while trying to get to the ball.

Keane stepped up, stutter-stepped and sent his attempt past a diving Gruenebaum to tie the score
in the 86th minute.

After the teams traded dangerous chances — with the Galaxy (8-7-3) ringing the crossbar — Keane
was nudged to the ground by Anor as he went for a header inside the penalty area.

Again Keane went low and to Gruenebaum’s right, sliding the penalty kick just underneath the
diving goalkeeper for the winning goal one minute into stoppage time.

At the half, the Crew had been outshot 13-1 and allowed five corner kicks without having one of
its own, but the game remained scoreless thanks to impressive saves by Gruenebaum.

In his first game against his former team, Galaxy midfielder Robbie Rogers was in position to
score his first goal of the season in the sixth minute. With open field ahead on the left flank, he
could only watch as forward Gyasi Zardes instead took a contested shot that was deflected.
